Umbrella Platform

OpenDNS blocks not only malware, botnets and phishing over any port, protocol or app, but also advanced attacks before they can cause damage. OpenDNS uses machine learning to automate protection against both known and emergent threats, and stays up-to-date without admin intervention. With OpenDNS there is no need to reroute all connections through proxy or VPN gateways to secure mobile users or remote offices. OpenDNS handles more than two percent of the world’s Internet requests daily with 100 percent uptime.

Is it right for me?

Umbrella Platform is for security practitioners and established incident response teams who need to provide security against, and reduce dwell time of, Internet threats, advanced attacks and security breaches.

Benefits

Worldwide coverage in minutes

OpenDNS protects devices anywhere and stays up-to-date without admin intervention because there is no hardware to install or software to maintain.

Comprehensive protection

OpenDNS delivers threat protection like no other. Not only is malware, botnets and phishing blocked over any port, protocol or app, but advanced attacks are detected and contained before they can cause damage. OpenDNS Security Graph delivers predictive intelligence using big-data analytics and machine learning to automate protection against both known and unknown threats.

Superior performance

With OpenDNS there is no added latency, as there is no need to reroute every connection through proxy or VPN gateways to secure mobile users or remote offices. OpenDNS Global Network has proven reliability, handling more than two percent of the world’s Internet requests daily with 100 percent uptime.

Enforcement for both our intelligence and yours

FireEye, Check Point, ThreatConnect, and other existing systems detect or aggregate many indicators of compromise (IOCs), but hours or days go by before action is taken. By leveraging OpenDNS APIs, you can programmatically add or remove these IOCs with Umbrella Platform. Internet activity attributed to our predictive intelligence and your IOCs are blocked at the DNS layer—reducing the time between detection and prevention to seconds. And our Intelligent Proxy adds URL-level inspection for partially malicious domains without degrading performance.

Actionable plus extended visibility

Umbrella Platform displays new network security activity in near real time with globally aggregated reports. Our Security Insights feature pinpoints devices infected or users targeted by advanced attacks to reduce the time to remediation. Our Investigate feature reduces alert noise and prioritizes incident response by enriching your local intelligence with global context. And you can discover emerging threats by investigating security events. Plus, you can see usage of cloud services, to identify risks and ensure compliance.

Integrated management workflow

Umbrella Platform includes our Virtual Appliance and Connector components to enable you to identify internal networks or Active Directory users infected or targeted by attacks, without touching devices or re-authenticating users. It enables consistent policy management by AD user or computer group membership. Our Log Management feature enables a simple cloud-to-cloud log storage solution with Amazon S3 that retains all DNS logs for as long as required.
